Mayor's Message
“As a growing and dynamic community, Telkwa is at an exciting crossroads. Updating our Official Community Plan is a key step in shaping the future we all envision. It’s important that we hear from our residents—your input will help guide how Telkwa grows and thrives in the years ahead. Together, we can build a vibrant, inclusive, and prosperous future for everyone who calls Telkwa home.”
Our Why?
The Village of Telkwa’s OCP was last updated in 2011. The new OCP will align with the existing Village plans, strategies and housing priorities. Community engagement is an important part of this process. Over the next year, the Village will meet with the community to create a plan that aligns with the community vision.
Phase Two
This phase of consultation includes presenting the Community Vision and Goals resulting from the Phase One Survey and Open House Events.
Events
Community Engagement events will be happening throughout this process. Your feedback matters. Visit our facebook page or news page to receive the most up to date open house events and community engagement initiatives.
